If you’re looking to build muscle, protein is key. But how much protein should you eat? That depends on how active you are and what your goals are. We’ve put together a list of delicious recipes that will help you reach your goals with ease!

1. Spicy chicken and avocado salad

• Chicken, avocado and tomato salad
• Chicken, avocado, tomato and lettuce
• Chicken, avocado, tomato and lettuce with lime juice
• Chicken breast fillets (1), cooked until cooked through (170 degrees C / 375 F), thinly sliced on the diagonal so that they look like shish kebabs; add salt to taste. Seasoned with salt & pepper to taste; stir fry in 1 tbsp olive oil until browned on both sides (about 2 minutes). In a separate pan over high heat add 1 tbsp olive oil; sauté onions until translucent then add garlic clove(s) minced finely or grated finely into the pan along with ginger root chopped fine then cook all together for another minute before adding chili flakes or cayenne pepper powder if desired! Stir fry till fragrant before adding chicken strips cut into bite size pieces along with instant noodles crushed into coarse pieces (mixed well) so that there are no lumps left behind after cooking them down again once done adding water/broth if needed for better absorption purposes 🙂

2. Vegetarian chickpea salad

• Vegetarian chickpea salad

A great option for a healthy vegetarian meal, this recipe is high in protein and gluten free. Chickpeas are also low fat and full of fiber, making them a great source of both nutrients.

• This dish can be made quickly using ingredients you likely have on hand: canned beans (such as red kidney beans or black beans), olive oil, vinegar or lemon juice (for adding flavor), spices such as cumin powder or paprika powder if desired depending on your preferences/needs!

3. Protein-packed baked potato

• Take a baked potato and slice it into wedges.
• Bake until golden brown, about 20 minutes.
• Top with protein-packed ingredients like cheese, avocado and broccoli.

You can also add ham or other meats to the mix if you’d like!

4. Tuna pasta

Tuna is a great source of protein, omega fatty acids, vitamin D and selenium. It’s also a good source of niacin and vitamins B6, C and E—all essential for muscle building. The tuna in this recipe provides about 100 grams per serving (about 3 ounces) with only 1 gram of fat per serving.

5. Chicken and mushroom bake

This dish takes a little bit of effort, but it’s definitely worth it. First you need to make the chicken and mushroom bake. To do this, put flour in a large bowl and mix with salt and pepper until well combined. Beat in eggs until they’re completely mixed in with the flour mixture; then add chicken pieces (about 4 per person) along with your favorite seasonings—chili powder or cayenne powder are both great additions!

Once everything has been mixed together thoroughly, place it all into an oven safe dish like an 8×8 pan or 9×13 baking dish (this makes about 6 servings). You’ll want to set aside about 2 hours for this recipe so that everything has time to settle down before serving time arrives!

Once your dish has cooled enough—it will take about 30 minutes—add greens such as kale or spinach leaves onto top along with shredded cheese slices because they add moisture while helping create softer bites throughout each bite!”

6. Creamy beef stroganoff

10. Bean and cheese quesadilla

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• In a medium pan over medium heat, add olive oil and cook onions until soft, about 10 minutes (be sure you don’t burn them!). Add garlic powder, cumin and chili powder; cook for an additional minute or two. Add beans and stir until heated through—about 5-10 minutes—then remove from heat once they’re done cooking through (no longer crunchy on the outside).
• Place one tortilla on parchment paper or foil in a small baking dish; spread half of bean mixture evenly over one side of tortilla then top with cheese slices (if using) to create quesadillas! Bake in oven for 10 minutes until cheese melts slightly but doesn’t turn dark brown like it would if left out overnight at room temperature before serving warm throughout lunchtime tomorrow.”
